My Comments on the Hiring Process Today #3

I like the insight: Companies keep the good ones (presumably) and the only people available for hire are the unwanted. (I'm not being snarky, but look what happened when Ford fired Lee Iacocca.)

Too many people are not being fast-tracked or, if you prefer, mentored. Think back to your school days. Didn't everyone know who the bright kids were? At recess, didn't everyone know who were the "captains" for soft-ball, kick-ball, etc?

Then again...

About Me

Armed only with an analytical mind and the ability to speak in metaphors, I attempt to explain the events of the day as I view them through the magic glasses my parents gave me over 50 years ago. Regards, Slim
